Several of our colleagues have developed magnetic resonance microscopy (MRM) to image at the cellular level (such as large neurons), repeatedly defying the boundaries of resolution on how small we can image. In collaboration with them, we attempted to image individual myofibers with MRM using both optical and MR contrast agents in our most recent manuscript. We found that this is possible, achieving resolution as little as 6 um, allowing us the ability to image individual myofibers. In the bigger picture, this will allow us to study MR properties of healthy and myopathic muscle cells. Furthermore, using nuclei tagged with optical and MR gene markers, we may find this useful for cell lineage MR studies.​
